Neville. SNIP !

Inge:
Having just posted a little something on how Trevor might come into 
play as the toad, beneath which, the egg (including Voldemort's soul) 
is hatched..... the above got me thinking that Trevor is the reason the 
Longbottoms were tortured. 
Voldemort's soul had gone - the LeStrange's somehow knew that Trevor 
would be the toad they'd need.
Longbottoms didn't give away where to find Trevor - they were tortured 
and ended up at St. Mungo's.
It was later given to Neville (sorry, I don't remember by who) and 
Neville was told to never lose sight of the animal - which is why he's 
very upset every time Trevor escapes him......
